Steel Model Kit for Collectors

This Metal Earth Cessna 172 Skyhawk kit is a steel model collectible designed for adult hobby enthusiasts. It arrives as a brand new, officially licensed product in unopened packaging. The set contains twenty-one parts that assemble into a detailed replica of the historic aircraft. No glue or paint is required for completion.

Moderate Difficulty Assembly

The moderate difficulty level is the specification that determines whether this kit matches the builder's experience. Assembly requires patience and the use of tweezers or similar tools to bend tabs and connect the steel sheets. The model features a detailed exterior with landing gear but has no openings. A display stand is included for the finished piece.

Compact Display Dimensions

Once assembled, the model measures approximately 4.49 inches in length, 3.62 inches in width and 0.98 inches in height. These compact dimensions allow the finished aircraft to fit easily on a desk or shelf without requiring a large display case. The fixed-wing replica represents the four-seat, single-engine aircraft first flown in 1955 and still in production today.
